Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano III: Pera is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Daniela Andrier. Parco Palladiano III: Pera opens with Sage and Mint, settles into a heart of Pear Tree Wood, Rose, Pepper, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Violet, and Clean Musk. Bottega Veneta's Parco Palladiano III: Pera carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive, peppery, woody beast. Not the pear scent you might expect; it's a unique, aromatic-green journey that you'll either love for its sophistication or find too challenging.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its moderate sillage and long-lasting nature make it versatile, but the unique, peppery character might be a bit much for very formal settings. It's often cited as a great daytime scent, especially in warmer weather, fitting casual and office wear well. Reviewers highlight its unique and natural feel.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opening with a sharp, invigorating burst of mint and sage, this fragrance quickly introduces a dominant, dry pepper that weaves through the entire composition. The promised 'pear' is actually pear tree wood, lending a woody, slightly green earthiness rather than a sweet fruit. As it settles, a subtle tea note emerges, underpinned by a clean musk and a whisper of violet and patchouli, creating an elegant, aromatic-woody drydown.
